What is OZO Audio in Nokia 8? Facts factory

A new dimension of sound with OZO Audio

Nokia 8 is also the first smartphone to feature OZO Audio, placing exclusive Hollywood technology in the palm of your hand. OZO spatial 360° audio brings a fully immersive audio experience to your 4K video. Leading-edge 360° audio capture ensures the playback lets you truly relive the moment so your memories never fade.

How OZO Audio works: Video

Overview

OZO Audio is an advanced spatial audio technology with 3D capture and playback capabilities.

Advanced psychoacoustic technology allows sound to be captured and played back just like it would

in real life, transporting you and amplifying your experiences in every direction. Audio Focus mode

lets you accentuate the right sounds you need while reducing ambient sounds or background noise.

OZO Audio is adaptable to virtually any form factor. Whether it's a smartphone or a camera, OZO

Audio is the ideal solution for manufacturers looking to entice new customers with world-class

immersive 3D audio. OZO Audio capture technology delivers on immersiveness - which means your

device will be 100% ready for the kinds of experiences consumers are craving.
